My first .xm music file, fast paced, boss music!!

Miscellaneous Forums/General Discussion/My first .xm music file, fast paced, boss music!!

Ok, this one is about two minutes long and the .xm version loops perfectly. For you tracker nerds, this one has all unique patterns, nothing repeats itself and it is even less repetetive then my last one. I'd really like your input as well everyone!!

Of course, this is Free for you to use in your game, as long as you give me credit.

i like the burning one.....makes me wanna fly a space ship and shoot aliens....but from an overhead veiw....

Probably work well as boss music for a retro style game but not a modern game. Sounds like my first Amiga modules about 16 years ago. Doesn't have much finess, sorry (I AM a tracker Nerd ;-)) However you gotta start somewhere right? Ever listen to Pro mods, they are really amazing. it's hard to get all the sorta effects and stuff that are easy in normal music programs, takes a lot of work and knowhow.

Sample 1 Kick has a load of crap on the end of it which you can hear on pattern 8.

I'll post one I made in another thread so as not to derail yours.

thanks guys :) you should listen to the mp3 version grey, it sounds mastered in comparison to the xm one.

oh yeah it does sound different, what did you do?

Well grey like you said "it's hard to get all the sorta effects and stuff that are easy in normal music programs, takes a lot of work and knowhow." which was very well put.

I struggle when it comes to mastering and polishing raw tracker files!! I do appreciate you taking the time to listen to my stuff tho :) One of these days I'll get it right hopefully.

Nice work Matt for your first xm file. This will definitely work as a boss theme. I could never get into tracking, just wasn't my thing I guess. Keep it up!
